Bowl ‘N Spoon in Brookside Pops with Fun on a Rainy Day

I just stopped by the Bowl ‘N Spoon in Brookside to see what all the excitement’s about. I’m on a no-carb diet, but since I blew it completely yesterday, I figured what the heck, even though it’s pouring rain, let’s see what this place is all about.

I took the last spot in the parking lot. It’s pouring rain, did I already say that? Who in their right mind is going out for cereal during a thunderstorm? Families! Lots of people with their children.

I was greeted by a friendly lady named Shelby Murdock, one of the managers. She was carrying a tray filled with little plastic cups containing Cookie Crisp cereal. When I told her I was on a low-carb diet and really didn’t need to be there, she handed me an instruction sheet explaining how to order and what the choices were.

Actually, you don’t have to eat just cereal. You can get a Belgian Waffle or a Smoothie Bowl made with fruit. The closest thing to my diet were the Bacon Bundles rolled in brown sugar….. yum! So tempting.

As the thunder rolled, the children laughed and more people continued to come in out of the rain with their dripping umbrellas.

I ran home and threw some surimi in a sauté pan with some chopped onion and poached some eggs. While I was eating all I could think of was how good a Belgian waffle would taste with a bundle of maple and brown sugar bacon strips.

I’m taking my grandchildren to the Bowl ‘N Spoon the next time the kids are in Tulsa.
